The consistent pace of execution this quarter is a direct reflection of our relentless drive to deliver disruptive technology solutions to our users across platforms, devices, and countries where we operate.

First Quarter 2017 Business Highlights

  • Gross Merchandise Volume was $2,334.0 million, a 31.0% increase in USD and a 61.4 % increase on an FX neutral basis.
  • Items sold during the first quarter of 2017 reached 53.2 million, maintaining momentum versus last quarter, and growing 38.6 % year-over-year. This increase was primarily driven by strong items growth in Brazil and Mexico, which delivered growth rates of 52.7% and 70.7% respectively versus the first three months of 2016.
  • Unique buyers grew by 20.3% year on year and maintained the solid pace of demand growth observed over the course of last year.
  • MercadoPago kicked off 2017 with an outstanding first quarter, processing $2,601.0 million dollars in Total Payment Volume, an 89.0% year-over-year increase. MercadoPago ended the quarter processing 44.1 million transactions, an increase of 60.1% year-over-year.
  • During the quarter, monetization on the platform continued to improve, driven by penetration gains of MercadoPago across our marketplaces. Penetration of MercadoPago on our platforms rose to 77.4% versus 56.2% when compared to the first quarter of 2016.
  • MercadoPago off platform payments business, saw a Total Payment Volume increase of 109.7% year-over-year in USD and 98.1% in local currencies. This growth was led by Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and Chile as commercial efforts to onboard new large clients and increased volume from Mobile Point of Sale solutions continue to deliver positive results.
  • Items shipped through MercadoEnvíos increased 58.7% to 27.3 million items in the first quarter of 2017. Mexico remains on solid footing with envíos penetration reaching 59% (vs. 30% last year), while items shipped increased 220% year on year to 2.6 million. Colombia delivered solid growth in shipping unit volumes (up 191% as compared to the first quarter of 2016), and market-wide usage of MercadoEnvíos has reached 51% of total items sold.
  • Our Classifieds business continues to experience growth, driven by demand from professional clients and maintaining its momentum in most countries. Live listings are at an all-time high of 3.8 million, growing 111% year-over-year. Professional clients are also at multi-year highs reaching almost 22 thousand sellers and growing 29% year-over-year.

First Quarter 2017 Financial Highlights

  • Net revenues for the first quarter were $273.9 million, a year-over-year increase of 73.8% in USD and 78.9% on an FX neutral basis. Excluding Venezuela, net revenues grew 78.3% in USD and 61.4% in local currencies.
  • Marketplace revenues grew 68.4% in USD, and 85.8% on an FX neutral basis, while non-marketplace revenues grew 81.8% in USD, and 68.4% on an FX neutral basis.
  •  Gross profit for the first quarter of 2017 was $168.9 million. Gross profit margin was 61.6%, compared to 64.8% in the first quarter of 2016. Most of the margin compression is as the result of an increase in costs of providing free shipping in Mexico and incremental mPos adoption.
  • Total operating expenses increased to $105.5 million, up 47.2% year-over-year. As a percentage of revenues, operating expenses were 38.5% versus 45.5% in the first quarter of 2016.

  • Interest income grew 67.7% year-over-year to $12.2 million
  • The company incurred $6.5 million dollars in financial expenses in the first quarter of 2017, mainly as a consequence of interest payments on its Convertible Bond issued in June 2014.
  • Net income before taxes was $69.7 million, up 87.2% year-over-year.
  • Income tax expense was $21.1 million during the first quarter, yielding a blended tax rate for the period of 30.4%, mainly due to higher share of pre-tax profits in Brazil.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use free cash flows and foreign exchange (“FX”) neutral measures as non-GAAP measures.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures can be found in the tables included in this annual report.

Non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance. Specifically, we believe that free cash flow provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding payments for the acquisition of property and equipment net of financial liabilities, of intangible assets and of acquired businesses net of cash acquired, that may not be indicative of our core operating results. In addition, we report free cash flows to investors because we believe that the inclusion of this measure provides consistency in our financial reporting.

Free cash flow represents cash from operating activities less payment and advances for the acquisition of property and equipment net of the related financial liabilities, intangible assets and acquired businesses net of cash acquired. We consider free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by our operations after the purchases of property and equipment, of intangible assets and of acquired businesses net of cash acquired. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of financial performance is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period.

The following table shows a reconciliation of Operating Cash Flows to Free Cash Flows:

       
   Three-month Periods Ended
    March 31,
(In millions)    2017   2016 
       
Net Cash provided by (used in) Operating Activities   $ 104.8  $ (11.8)
Payment for acquired business, net of cash acquired     -    (1.8)

The Company believes that reconciliation of FX neutral measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure provides investors an overall understanding of our current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding the foreign currency exchange rate impact that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook.

The FX neutral measures were calculated by using the average monthly exchange rates for each month during 2016 and applying them to the corresponding months in 2017, so as to calculate what our results would have been had exchange rates remained stable from one year to the next. The table below excludes intercompany allocation FX effects. Finally, these measures do not include any other macroeconomic effect such as local currency inflation effects, the impact on impairment calculations or any price adjustment to compensate local currency inflation or devaluations.

The following table sets forth the FX neutral measures related to our reported results of the operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017:
